Meet the fabulous Jillian! 🎉 Born approximately on October 15, 2025, this 12-week-old bundle of joy found herself on a journey from Oklahoma to Iowa after enduring a rough start in life. Three of her siblings sadly lost their battle with parvo, but Jillian emerged resilient and ready to embrace all that life has to offer! 💖 Currently weighing in at 15 lbs, we believe she’s a spirited Staffordshire Terrier mix, and oh boy, does she have personality! Jillian is the kind of girl that captures hearts with her happy-go-lucky spirit and outgoing nature. She adores everyone and everything she meets! 🌟 Following her canine foster siblings around the yard is her favorite pastime, and she’s always eager for a playmate who can keep up with her zest for life. Now, let’s talk about her bedtime routine—the girl does great in her kennel, settling in nicely during the day and snoozing peacefully all night. 🌙 Potty training? Jillian's on it! She's learning to communicate her needs by going to the door when nature calls. However, with her playful puppy energy, a home without little kids would be best until she refines her manners. Plus, she has a playful rivalry with the foster cat, so a cat-free home would be ideal for this feisty gal! 😸 Intelligence is her middle name! This clever cookie is eager to learn and thrives on food motivation. She’s picking up basic commands like a pro—come, sit, shake, and even roll over! Talk about a superstar! 🌟 When she’s not busy being a puppy tornado, you can find her playing fetch, tugging on squeaky toys, or enjoying cheerful belly rubs and a good chew bone. Jillian lets her inner puppy loose with zoomies in the yard, especially if it’s a fenced area—ideal for her free-spirited adventures! 🏃‍♀️💨 Jillian is not just looking for a home; she’s looking for a forever family to share her kisses and joy with. 🥰 Just remember, she still needs a little bit of time before she can be spayed on February 19, 2026, and applications are currently being accepted only from within a 30-minute radius of Des Moines. So, if a spirited, loving companion sounds like your kind of dream, don’t hesitate! Make sure to apply through the Buddy App to meet Jillian and bring her home. She’s ready to fill your life with mirth and mischief! 🐾❤️
